For days I have been looking for my passport and car papers, turned the whole house upside down, emptied the garbage bins, called colleagues at work if they found something etc.
Today we did search everything again and surprise, the papers were still in my laptop bag.
I had put them in a different compartiment than usual ...

I have the same problem: I can find anything I put down, provided it hasn't been moved ... and provided I haven't "Put it somewhere safe so I won't lose it" ...

I chalk all of this and more up to getting older and the gradual decline of mental cognition and memory. If you add stress to this as well, it makes it much worse.
I write notes to remind myself to do things, only to forget where I put my notes, or to forget that I wrote a note to remind myself to do something.

On the positive side: I only need one movie.
If you can keep your head while those about you are losing theirs, perhaps you don't understand the situation.

Here's hoping it's a good one!

Alas, I don't remember.

Did you find my driving licence in there by any chance?

If you think about it, things are always in the last place you look. Maybe you should have looked there first.
I am very fortunate that my head is permanently attached.

Well we looked about 10 times in the laptop bag but just overlooked it.
Good idea about attaching the head!

I once spent half an hour looking for my glasses. Finally found them when I had an itch on my nose.

A comment by an American commentator got me thinking about this. Basically, he said that there is a tacit understanding between the Russian government and the Russian hackers that so long as Russians aren't affected, they will not be targeted. Now it seems to me that the way that a hacker virus would avoid a Russian computer is to look to see if the Russian keyboard is installed (it doesn't actually have to be used, just installed). Ergo, all American companies & individuals would have to do is to have the Russian keyboard installed, since the virus will first look in the Registry to see that it is there before proceeding with its payload.

Nah, those viruses check the DNA of the computer user through the keyboard, it is well known that the ENTER key is longer because it includes the wireless DNA test probes and devices.
You are doomed if your DNA doesn't show you eat blinis at least one a week.
Of course, having a picture of Vladimir Putin in bikini riding a bear in the web cam vision range has been also proved to avoid any cyber attack. This method is much better as it avoids the problem of not liking eating blinis.

Would it count if I have web history of checking out the dyevs at rt.com?

Not good enough. The left shift key detects the presence of vodka (Stolichnaya, not the Western rubbish ) in your bloodstream. If it goes too low, your computer is toast.

Best to just unplug everything.
Went for car oil change Tuesday. I was only one in waiting area reading a real book. About a dozen others on phones and computers using open WiFi. What could possibly go wrong?

This has happened to me too. The only one in a waiting area reading a real book!

Yeah, I purposely don't use mine when I'm out waiting or eating. I love being a rebel and going against the grain. A bonus is you can watch people and they haven't a clue.

Same for me at doctor / hospital lately... even the roommates... noone has a real paper book.
All with phones or even tablets.

servers aren't likely to have keyboards. so it's probably just doing setlocale(LC_ALL, NULL) to get the system locale.
